[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see where our country is headed based on these loony responses. Let her wear a g-string to class, so long as she's comfortable!

Nobody has said that.[/quote]

Not exactly. But so much more importance seems to be placed on the will of the child rather than the greater good. Oh, mind your business, just listen to what the principal says! What BS.[/quote]

What greater good?[/quote]

How is anyone else's "greater good" served or harmed by what another person chooses to wear, exactly?[/quote]

We live in a society - what other people do affects us, and what we do affects others. [/quote]

Ok, sure, I can accept that as a valid general idea. But I'm honestly asking you not just for that description of a society, but also for a better understanding of HOW someone else's clothing choices are a problem for me in any way, or mine for them. I do not get that, but if I'm missing something obvious I would at least like to consider the idea to better inform my stance if nothing else. Can you explain to me HOW someone else's clothing impacts another person, or WHY I should care at all what anyone else wears?[/quote]

For realz? Okay. I will use a work analogy.

If a man has a large penis (stay with me) and he chooses to wear extremely tight workout tights in a space he shares with me for 8 hours a day, that affects me. I would probably feel uncomfortable. It would be an uncomfortable subject to discuss, and the onus would be on me to bring it up - obviously, he is okay with his wardrobe choice, so I'd be the one stirring the pot. This could affect our relationship negatively - he could come to see me as a nag, or a prude, or as closed-minded. He might start gossiping about me, or undermining me on the job. It could go so many ways. But it all would have been prevented if, in the morning when choosing his clothes, he said to himself 'You know, I think I look great in these tights, and they are oh so comfortable. But I have a huge d*ck, and you can see the outline of the whole honking thing when I wear these tights - because I work in close proximity with someone who may not be comfortable seeing me in these, maybe I will choose pants that don't expose the outline of my genitalia.' It's courteous.

Young girls and boys may love certain articles of clothing, but that clothing may not be appropriate for all environments. If we are to encourage learning and healthy socialization at school, I don't think it's too much to expect that students, teachers, and anyone else in the school environment dresses in an appropriately sober manner.[/quote]
